Answer

DUSTY

Today's word is a common English adjective that describes something covered with or full of fine, dry particles. It comes from the Old English word 'dust' combined with the suffix 'y' meaning 'characterized by.' You will often hear this word used to describe abandoned rooms, desert trails, or anything that has been neglected for a while and accumulated a layer of grime.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle has four consonants and only one vowel. When you are struggling to find the answer, consider that some common English words rely heavily on consonants. Words ending in Y are quite frequent in Wordle, so keeping that pattern in mind can help narrow your guesses.
